Ingredients for layer 1:
1 young coconut
¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
4 dates
Ingredients for layer 2:
5 ripe persimmons, sliced (with seeds and stems removed)
1 cup apple juice
¼ cup almonds
Instructions: Scoop out the meat of the young coconut and place it in the blender. Add in the pumpkin pie space and the dates. Pour in ¼ cup of the coconut water. Using very little water is the trick to making this layer of the smoothie thick and creamy. If your coconut is too young and does not have very much meat, you may have to use the meat of two coconuts instead of just one. Blend the first layer on a low speed until it is smooth and thick. Use a spatula to evenly distribute the coconut cream into four clear glasses. The glasses should be about half way filled with the first layer of the pudding. Next, place the persimmons and apple juice into your blender. Blend the second layer until it is smooth. Gently pour the second layer into the glasses, making sure not to disturb the first layer. Decorate with almonds.
